Building relationships
Librarians choreograph dances together (Suzanne's idea)
  • if this is to happen, there must be polka music.

  • Keep it manageable (librarian after hours, etc.)
  • Keep contact info handy & shoot off emails.

Work on a common project
  • Float for a parade
  • ALA's book cart drill competition
  • Combined outreach at community events
  • Mutual support for higher education programs (field experience)

Understand
  • Listen and understand your librarian counterpart
  • Names, schedules, funding, collection development policies, etc.
